Claire Vo built ChatPRD—an on-demand chief product officer powered by AI. It’s now used by over 10,000 product managers and is pulling in six figures in revenue.

The best part? Claire has a demanding day job as the CPO at LaunchDarkly. So she built all of ChatPRD herself—over the weekend—with AI. I sat down with Claire to talk about how ChatPRD works, how she built it as a side hustle using AI, and all of the ways she’s using AI tools to accelerate her work and life. We get into:

How she used AI to build ChatPRD over Thanksgiving break
The part of product management that Claire thinks AI will disrupt
Why the PMs of tomorrow will be “proto-managers” who create prototypes rather than just specs
How junior PMs can use AI to upskill faster
The ways in which ChatPRD is baked into her own workflow
How building ChatPRD is making Claire a better PM
How Claire uses AI as a tech-forward parent

This is a must-watch for anyone interested in turning their side hustle into a thriving business or who works in product.
